    Hi there!

    I'm Monica, a woman who lives on the outskirts of a town in Mantova, north of Italy. I need help in my day to day with my three dogs, with the horse, and with a very cute pony, so I prefer someone who has experience with horses. I also need help to cut the grass, and to do some light cleaning.

    I am available during the entire year, so do not hesitate to send a request or ask questions.

    My house is very large, and you will have a room and a private bathroom. You will not have a salary, but you will be my guest, so you won't have to pay for the meals or accommodation.

    I only speak Italian, but my son speaks English, German and Spanish, in case you need it.

    There are many things to do with your free time: There are many beautiful little towns to visit and Lago di Garda is very close, so you could take boat trips, or in summer you can swim and practice paddle surf. You can go on your own, but I'm always willing to accompany you to see the nearby cities and to take you to the Mantova train station. You can also ride if you are an experienced rider, or if you want I can teach you some Italian.
